How have I ,[object Object],represented ,[object Object],my particular ,[object Object],social group?,[object Object]
There is a common stereotype of 15 – 25 year old males. Many people, particularly the older generation, place a negative label on this age range. In my magazine, I have embraced this stereotype. I have acknowledged that it is not necessarily true. However, I’ve also looked at the fact that my audience are people who enjoy dance music and enjoy the clubbing scene which is closely linked with alcohol, drugs and nightlife. To make my magazine more attractive, I have had to act upon this and include some things which I feel are relevant to my audience and social group.,[object Object]
What, in my magazine, could be seen as reinforcing the  negative stereotype...,[object Object]
Smoking,[object Object],A negative label sometimes put on young adults and teens, I have used cigarettes in my magazine. I don’t feel this creates controversy as it’s not illegal or uncommon.,[object Object]
Swearing,[object Object],Taboo language is not exclusive to 15 – 25 year olds, many older people swear or curse. However, a high percentage of 15 – 25 year olds do swear, so to address this, I have included some in my article to show how in sync it is with my specific audience.  ,[object Object]
Drugs,[object Object],By featuring an article about drugs doesn’t imply that the magazine support it. I feel that getting people aware and knowledgeable about drugs will be beneficial. Furthermore, I would expect a proportion of my audience to be involved with the drug scene as it is often partnered with nightlife and clubbing, so including an article about it will invite and engage them in.,[object Object]
By featuring all of these elements inside my magazine, I aim to re-sculpt people’s negative views. However, to counteract these “negative stereotypes”, in my magazine, I have included positive ones too. For example:,[object Object]
Education,[object Object],I talk about how Afrika – my featured artist – enjoys education and is actually fairly intelligent. This disproves the negative stereotype some people may have of young people of them being “lazy”, “drop outs” or “thick”. ,[object Object]
